[PATCH] mm: cma: free cma page to buddy instead of being cpu hot page

From: zhang . mingjun
Date: Mon Oct 28 2013 - 07:43:32 EST


From: Mingjun Zhang <troy.zhangmingjun@xxxxxxxxxx>

free_contig_range frees cma pages one by one and MIGRATE_CMA pages will be
used as MIGRATE_MOVEABLE pages in the pcp list, it causes unnecessary
migration action when these pages reused by CMA.
